OH Barb, it is beautiful !!! I had one of them at my old home. We got it as a wedding present. it was 25+ years old when we moved. IT it was also about 6-7 feet tall & as I had no place for it, and no one to give it to, I had to toss it out. That really hurt and seeing yours brought it all back. Please care for yours for me.

Very nice...I have one here about 4 feet tall, I have to keep cutting it back. It's the toughest plant I've ever owned...my sis-in-law gave it to me when it got to spindly. I cut it back and it just flourished.
Sorry about your plant Carol~you should buy another. Plants for wedding gifts? that's the best thing I've ever heard
~~Tam~ You can bury all your troubles by digging in the dirt.
yep, Tamara--we also were given a beautiful large False Aralia (Dizygotheca elegantissima). But I managed to kill it thru neglect. Now there is a plant I would love to own again one day.

I have one of those also but it's not doing well, don't think it likes the heat or the no himidity in here. I bought it at Wal-Mart, they have lots of plants there for a few dollars.
I'd send you one but don't think it would pass through customs~looks too much like the 'pot of choice for some'

Mine started out as a 1 inch plant in a 2 inch liner. I have to keep cutting it back because it grows taller that my house now. I don't want it growing up under my roof tiles and lifting them. They can take a lot of cutting. And the growing tips will root fairly easily. I have shared a lot of rooted cuttings.
